2025: The year in nuclear
As Nuclear News has done since 2022, we have compiled a review of the nuclear news that filled headlines and sparked conversations in the year just completed. Departing from the chronological format of years past, we open with the most impactful news of 2025: a survey of actions and orders of the Trump administration that are reshaping nuclear research, development, deployment, and commercialization. We then highlight some of the top news in nuclear restarts, new reactor testing programs, the fuel supply chain and broader fuel cycle, and more.
Local Sections are the bedrock of ANS's outreach and engagement efforts, serving as vital hubs for promoting the benefits of nuclear science and technology within their communities. Their dedicated efforts provide the public with accurate and accessible information on the societal advantages of nuclear science and technology. The sections are also instrumental in creating vital networking opportunities and facilitating information exchange among nuclear professionals, strengthening the local nuclear community.
